Former US president Joe Biden yesterday announced the forthcoming publication of a memoir on his time in the White House, and said that his cancer treatment was going "really well."

In May 2025, just four months after he left office as the oldest sitting president, Biden revealed that he had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that had spread to his bones.

He subsequently began radiation therapy.

"Since I left the presidency, I've had a lot of people ask me, 'Joe, what have you been doing?'" the 83-year-old said in a video on his X account.

"I've been spending a lot of time with my family. I'm dealing with a cancer diagnosis, and I've been getting treatment, and it's been going really well," he said, thanking his well-wishers.

He said his upcoming presidential memoir, "Promise Me, America," would be about the "challenges we faced as a nation, about the decisions I made, and why I made them."
